Real diamonds, smart budget

A budget under $1,000 still buys a real diamond engagement ring when you choose lab grown. Our rings in this range use real lab grown diamonds in sterling silver, 10K or 14K gold.

Getting the most from your budget

Choose 10K or 14K gold over 18K or platinum, pick a simple solitaire or hidden halo setting, and consider an elongated shape such as oval or pear that looks larger per carat. You can always upgrade the band or add a wedding band later.

The best ring for under $1,000

Lab grown diamonds let you get a bigger, brighter center stone for the same budget. To stretch your budget further, choose 14K gold over 18K or platinum, an elongated shape that looks larger per carat, and F color with VS clarity, which looks colorless and eye-clean.

How to choose

Start with the look you love, then pick the metal that matches your style and the diamond size that fits your budget. Prices in this collection range from $442 to $997, with shapes including round, oval, emerald, marquise, radiant and pear.

Are lab grown diamonds real?

Yes. Lab grown diamonds are made of pure carbon with the same crystal structure, hardness and sparkle as mined diamonds, and they are graded on the same color, clarity and carat scales. They typically cost 70 to 90 percent less and have a traceable, conflict-free origin.

Sizing, care and custom requests

Every piece is made to order, so you can choose your ring size, metal and, on many designs, the diamond size and quality. Clean your jewelry with warm water, mild soap and a soft brush, and store it separately to avoid scratches. Want a change to a design? Contact our team for a custom quote.
